We've shared Ocean lock with a coaster before now (a long time ago). I think 
we let him in first, but we were first out! I've seen them come and go 
through that lock, and they tend to be a little heavy on the bow thruster. 
When the thruster produces more power than 20 narrowboats, you don't want to 
be in the water near them!
